Marmaris Holidays

Marmaris Holidays – Beautiful coastline, vibrant nightlife!

Marmaris holidays take you to an incredibly popular Turkey party resort with a gorgeous coastline, genuinely friendly people, wonderful fresh food and excellent local wines… and it’s the region’s party capital, with masses of nightclubs, bars and pubs, restaurants and cafes to keep you entertained 24/7! The summer is long and you’ll enjoy amazing weather between May and the end of October. The resort sits beneath lovely pine clad hills, combining beautiful scenery with wild nightlife that spreads as far along the unspoiled coast as the quieter resort of Iclemer.

The surrounding countryside is a feast of culture, pretty villages and laid back towns, ancient history and archaeological sites so it’s a great all-rounder, most popular with youngsters and groups but a treat for anyone who likes a lively, buzzy break in superbly hot and sunny weather. And it goes without saying that the golden sandy beaches are simply superb!

When to go

It’s busy, busy, busy in the summer peak season when the schools are on holiday, so if you prefer a slightly quieter break, choose a time when the kids are at school. Holidays to Marmaris deliver beautiful weather right through from May to the end of October, and it can get extremely hot and humid during July and August, best avoided if you prefer heat without the stickiness. Marmaris in winter is sleepy and mellow, with many places closed, but it’s perfect for walking, shopping, Turkish baths and eating out, as well as exciting excursions to Ephesus, Istanbul, Dalyan and any number of pretty local towns and villages.
